....has been diagnosed with a brain tumor.  I guess this might explain why he runs over people with his car.  Doesn't explain why he outs CIA agents or prints other garbage though.

Columnist Novak diagnosed with brain tumor

BOSTON - Conservative political commentator Robert Novak announced Monday he has been diagnosed with a brain tumor, less than a week after he struck a pedestrian with his Corvette and drove away.

Novak, 77, fell ill on Cape Cod this weekend while visiting his daughter and was rushed to Brigham and Women?s Hospital, where he said he was diagnosed Sunday with the tumor.

?I will be suspending my journalistic work for an indefinite but, God willing, not too lengthy period,? Novak, editor of the Evans-Novak Political Report, said in the statement released by his publisher, Eagle Publishing.

Last week, Novak was given a $50 citation after he struck a homeless man with his black Corvette in downtown Washington. Novak kept going until he was stopped by a bicyclist, who said the man was splayed on Novak?s windshield.

Dr. Lynne Taylor, a neuro-oncologist at Virginia Mason Medical Center in Seattle, said residents at the hospital are taught to check for brain tumors in patients who report having a recent car accident in which they didn?t realize they struck something.

Novak was criticized after he was the first to publicly reveal the name of CIA operative Valerie Plame in a 2003 column. His column came out eight days after Plame?s husband, Joseph Wilson, said the Bush administration had twisted prewar intelligence to exaggerate the Iraqi threat.

Apparently they've got so many homeless people in DC that it's only a $50 fine.

Two things:

1) What the hell is Bob Novak doing driving a Corvette?
2) I hope this a$$hole dies soon
 
I had my iPod on full blast walking down Connecticut avenue today.  I survived Robert Novak, just one more day.

Phew.
